Avoid clicking on links or attachments. We will NEVER ask for a password, username, payment or to take action from an email. When in doubt, please forward to SecurityAlert@cctexas.com. 1 ] Hello, I am a avid surf fisherman and beach goer. I grew up here in Corpus Christi. I am greatly disappointed in how are beach access has been handled. I know Judge Canales is discouraging people to travel to our city and the island to help prevent the spread of Covid 19. However, how she has handled beach access is not very responsible. Retail stores, restaurants, and gyms remain open.You are more likely to catch the virus there then-you are an open environment like our beaches and parks.We have over 80 miles of beaches, including the Padre Island National Seashore. I can always find a secluded spot on the beach. I do know there are popular spots that some gather and may be crowded. We just need to enforce social distancing and people will fall in line once they realize its actually being enforced. During the spring and early summer when we had a bunch of people on the beach, police were not enforcing social distancing.These were in small areas because I could simply drive further and get away from these crowds. I can understand closing the beach around Bob Hall Pier where the parking lot and the pier took heavy damage. Keeping people away from there to clean up and repair is a must. Plenty of other areas of the beach we can access. As far as the word access goes, if I can not access the beach in my vehicle, I can not access the beach.There are manly disabled people who can not simply park and walk to the beach. Myself, I am not disabled, but suffer from several arthritis and lack of cartilage in my leg and ankle due to a severe car accident. If I have to walk a long distance, I am limping and in pain for days.As a fishermen, I would not be able to carry all of my equipment to the beach if I have to park and walk.Also, parking and walking to the beach forces people to use the few access points available.This is forcing people to congregate. Isn't this what we are trying to avoid? The beach is my place of zin. In these stressful times,we all need a place to destress and relax. Mine has been taken away. Thanks for listening, 1 R.

I have a baby who is one year and a month now, and I've had to endure this the whole time while trying to raise a baby at the same time. It's not good, it's frustrating, infuriating, and tormenting. I don't know what to do or where to turn. This is a LAW that has ALREADY BEEN PASSED and it is NOT ENFORCED. I leave this in your hands Mr. Mayor and I pray you act swiftly. I'M BEGGING TO YOU TAKE ACTION! It's not only the carwash, they park at the Circle K right across from the carwash and blast it there too. It's a frequency that reaches decibels of over 200+, it vibrates everything in my home. PLEASE TAKE ACTION!!! VERY DISTRAUGHT, D.Flo res 1 Sarah Brunkenhoefer From: CitySecretary Sent: Monday, August 3, 2020 9:15 AM To: Rebecca Huerta Cc: Sarah Brunkenhoefer; Norma Duran Subject: FW: CC Beach-Goer PAC FYI.

We are ultimately patient and respectful given the current state we are in with COVID-19. We are aiming to respectfully unify the voices of sportsmen and beach- goers who have brought similar issues to our attention.We have meticulously gone through the community's opinions and have found these issues to be the most concerning to them as a whole. • Establish an ordinance where surfers can no longer be halted, cited/ticketed when they have a leash on choosing to go surf big wave conditions.They accept the risk at that point on their own. •Jet Skis with lifeguards running during daylight conditions.There have been numerous tragic accidents and we think these could be easily prevented if skis were in the water watching for people being swept out by rip currents or in distress. Having that level of increased safety will provide better tourism and less anxiety to be near the water with your family. • Water sampling and having this data made viewable to the public via social media via an announcement.As a way to pay for it reevaluating the fee total or reallocating some of the money that goes to the city from beach passes and other means have been discussed by the community as a concern and possible fix. Using social media means of delivering this message will save on a large aspect related to the budget for services such as this. •There needs to be a firm action plan in place to prevent so much debris from entering the water by removing picnic tables, porter potties, lifeguard towers,and trash cans for each time we are faced with coastal flood warnings. • A suggestion for having the pier be built to withstand storm surges and bigger wave conditions to ensure tax money isn't lost in the future on repairs. •The lakes have fishermen and surfers affected in a separate district that need attention as they are losing out on being able to enjoy the lake due to restrictions. •The confusion between officials leading up to,throughout, and after the storm between the community became overwhelming as well as confusing on our end.The beach is open but surfers were asked to leave waters as the surf was no bigger than head high.Surfers were being ticketed or cited for wanting to surf.The county needs to consult with the city better in the future.We want to be compliant as much as possible but the lack of communication made that difficult at first. • Unrestricted Vehicular access.This would help many disabled people have better unrestricted access to the beach as well.As stated during the video conference provided by the city with guest Gov.Greg Abbott that policies need to constantly adapt. Both the county judge and Abbott spoke of having to manipulate policies,frequently and often,to have the best prevention strategy for COVID-19. I think this could be a great manipulation of the policy to allow vehicular access to help act as a positive catalyst for reducing COVID-19. Having PINS access point opened ASAP for die hard fishermen is necessary.That is 60 miles of coastline that could be used to spread people out better. I think this will help alleviate some tensions between the community and officials while also helping prevent COVID-19. Ultimately,we are patient and are willing to work with all officials.We would like to ensure statements that define that restricted vehicle access is only temporary and will be restored to the public when deemed safe using the shortest timeline possible once those COVID-19 conditions improve in the area. 2 Sarah Brunkenhoefer From: CitySecretary Sent: Monday,August 10, 2020 1:42 PM To: Rebecca Huerta Cc: Sarah Brunkenhoefer; Norma Duran Subject: FW:Covid Violation of City Employee FYI.

I am an elderly person with major health issues(diabetes, hypertension),and so is my wife.We are both DISABLED. Both guaranteed death from Covid. "WE" have been following the rules, staying home, ordering groceries. Even if this employee had only touched my doorknob and the notice, it still puts us at risk(if I happen to rub my eyes afterwards,etc); because I doubt the notice was decontaminated. Not to mention I could have contaminated the employee,taking Covid back to his workplace. This is insanity right now when there is not one ICU bed left in the Corpus Christi Hospitals, and a predication of Covid cases doubling in the next 30 days. I contend my Corpus Christi officials are unnecessarily putting their elderly and disabled citizens at risk over an insignificant code violation. I bring this dangerous practice to your full attention now going on in Corpus Christi,TX.

I urge the City Council to place on the November ballot a question concerning the public funding of desalination projects. Despite the pandemic, a petition drive gathered the signatures of several thousand voters who want this question placed on the ballot. The discharge of brine from desal plants would change the salinity of Corpus Christi Bay harming plant and animal life and those who rely on Bay life for their livelihood. One desal plant, privatley funded, will begin operations in 2021. No one has studied the cumulative effects of 2-6 desal plants all discharging brine into the Bay, though there are multiple desal plants proposed. Desalination is not necessary to secure water for the City's population. Public financing of desal plants would increase water rates for Corpus Christi residents. City residents should be allowed to vote for or against public financing of desal projects and these water rate increases. Let the people vote.

If you are putting the proposed Charter amendment and bonds on the ballot, it makes sense to do this as well, in the spirit of democracy.

I'm writing to urge city council to put the No Desal Charter Amendment on the ballot. Let the people vote. We have nearly 5,000 in signatures that we got from our citizens, even though we weren't able to meet at public spaces in gatherings. In the aftermath of Hurricane Hannah, Judge Barbara Canales spoke about "restoration and nourishment" and "caring" for life and property. We also have a wealth of scientific data and information to show us the incredible surge of damage to our bay with a desalination plant: We know about the excessive "brine"that it produces that kills marine life and destroys an entire ecosystem. We know that it cuts us off from our fishing, birding, tourist industry, our spectrum of health, while costing us millions and using millions of gallons of our own fresh water. Yes, let's use our knowledge, be good stewards of our home and our hard won democracy. The people should have a voice in how we care and nurture our home.
